Milk Thistle Extract

Milk Thistle seeds help stimulate protein synthesis in the liver. It can help reverse the damage done from eating poisonous mushrooms such as Death Cap (Amanita phalloides) or from carbon tetrachloride, which destroys liver cells and usually cause death. Milk Thistle is a good supplement to use to protect the liver when needing to take pharmaceutical drugs. Primary chemical constituents of Milk Thistle include flavolignans (silymarin), tyramine, histamine, gamma linoleic acid, essential oil, mucilage, and bitter principle. Milk Thistle is also an antioxidant that is more potent than vitamins C and E.
